    Yep, this is what I do.

    I've tried several things:

         a) Loading with no args, opening the file, then M-x clpmud
         b) Loading the file from the shell, then M-x clpmud
         c) Every other key-combo I could think of :)

    It seems that M-x clpmud is supposed to run a macro. However, how will emacs
    know of a macro's existence if I don't define it in some way? I mean -
    loading the file for editing shouldn't do it...

    No probs, any help is good help.
